REGIONAL ANALYTICAL REPORT UPPER EAST REGION Ghana Statistical Service June, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Ghana Statistical Service Prepared by: ZMK Batse Festus Manu John K. Anarfi Edited by: Samuel K. Gaisie Chief Editor: Tom K.B. Kumekpor ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT There cannot be any meaningful developmental activity without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, and socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. The Kilimanjaro Programme of Action on Population adopted by African countries in 1984 stressed the need for population to be considered as a key factor in the formulation of development strategies and plans. A population census is the most important source of data on the population in a country. It provides information on the size, composition, growth and distribution of the population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of resources, government services and the allocation of government funds among various regions and districts for education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users with an analytical report on the 2010 PHC at the regional level to facilitate planning and decision-making. This follows the publication of the National Analytical Report in May, 2013 which contained information on the 2010 PHC at the national level with regional comparisons. Conclusions and recommendations from these reports are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based policy formulation, planning, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programs.

From my first day in Kejetia, the miners received me with kindness, opened their homes to me, and shared with me their personal and difficult lives. I am very grateful and humbled by the way women willingly allowed me entry into their private spaces, the ease with which we have developed lasting friendships, and supported me throughout my fieldwork. I am especially thankful to Monica for sharing her one-bedroom space, introducing me to her friends, and explaining my project to those who were amazed that a fellow Ghanaian woman would spend one year in their community to collect data for research. Kejetia, bopowha wo mpohoya. To the staff of the Upper East Minerals Commission and the Talensi District Assembly, I am grateful for welcoming me into your offices and granting me interviews, in spite of your busy schedule.

Name Signature Date ii ABSTRACT TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE CHIEFTAINCY INSTITUTION IN NORTHERN GHANA FROM 1900-1969: A CASE STUDY OF NAVRONGO AND SAKOT This study focuses on the transformations that have characterized indigenous political administration in Navrongo and Sakot. These areas both belong to the Gur speaking group and lie north of the Black Volta, specifically in the Upper East Region of modern Ghana. The study highlights the changes that has occurred in the traditional political administration of Navrongo and Sakot since 1900. It reflects change and continuity before British rule, under colonialism and after independence up until 1969. Before colonial rule in the twentieth century, immigrants had introduced chieftaincy into Navrongo from Zikku in the North-East Territory of the Upper Volta.

A selection of these trainers plus those trained in previous years will go on to deliver PTC in Upper West Region this October as part of an intensive 2-week programme. Background Up to this year there had been 5 PTC courses and 2 Training of Trainer (ToT) courses in Upper East Region of Ghana. It was recognised by healthcare staff in the region that capacity building needed to continue but, with further ToT courses, there would be sufficient number of trainers to deliver the courses to their neighbouring region, Upper West, an area that has not had the same training input as Upper East.

The Bulsa of Ghana the Bulsa Live in the North-Central Part of Ghana in a 2,000 Square Kilometer Area
Profile Year: 1996 People and Language Detail Report Language Name: Buli (Ghana) ISO Language Code: bwu The Bulsa of Ghana The Bulsa live in the north-central part of Ghana in a 2,000 square kilometer area. Most are farmers, with fields located up to five kilometers from the compounds. They raise crops like millet, beans, and groundnuts. Extra income is earned by making crafts, such as pottery, wooden stools, decorative hoe and axe handles, and woven grass baskets and hats. The Bulsa are a group quite distinct from all their neighbors. They speak a language called Buli and have a proud heritage. When the slave-raider Babatu attacked them in the 19th century, they were able to stand against him and turn him back! That event is celebrated to this day with an elaborate festival just before Christmas. The traditional Bulsa shelter is a compound of round and rectangular rooms, with courtyards and animal enclosures in between. The rooms are made of a mixture of mud, clay and sand. The roof is either flat, of the same mixture as the walls, or conical made of grass. These rooms last only a few years, and often collapse in heavy rains. Each compound usually contains men who have a common father or grandfather. There are usually at least three smaller family units in a compound, each made up of about seven to ten people. Some compounds are very large, with over 40 people living there, while others may be very small. Compounds are normally three quarters of a mile apart. Primary Religion: The Bulsa have an open-side grass-roofed shelter outside the compound walls Tribal Religion which is used for social activities.

Geographic Accessibility to Public Health Facilities Providing
Kuupiel et al. BMC Public Health (2019) 19:718 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-019-7052-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Geographic accessibility to public health facilities providing tuberculosis testing services at point-of-care in the upper east region, Ghana Desmond Kuupiel1,7* , Kwame M. Adu2, Felix Apiribu1,3, Vitalis Bawontuo4,7, Duncan A. Adogboba5, Kwasi T. Ali6 and Tivani P. Mashamba-Thompson1 Abstract Background: In Ghana, limited evidence exists about the geographical accessibility to health facilities providing tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic services to facilitate early diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, we aimed to assess the geographic accessibility to public health facilities providing TB testing services at point-of-care (POC) in the Upper East Region (UER), Ghana. Methods: We assembled detailed spatial data on all 10 health facilities providing TB testing services at POC, and landscape features influencing journeys. These data were used in a geospatial model to estimate actual distance and travel time from the residential areas of the population to health facilities providing TB testing services. Maps displaying the distance values were produced using ArcGIS Desktop v10.4. Spatial distribution of the health facilities was done using spatial autocorrelation (Global Moran’s Index) run in ArcMap 10.4.1. We also applied remote sensing through satellite imagery analysis to map out residential areas and identified locations for targeted improvement in the UER. Results: Of the 13 districts in the UER, 4 (31%) did not have any health facility providing TB testing services. In all, 10 public health facilities providing TB testing services at POC were available in the region representing an estimated population to health facility ratio of 125,000 people per facility.
